1. IMPROVED FRAMEWORK FOR REVERSIBLE DATA HIDING IN ENCRYPTED IMAGES

Authors- M.REBECCAL ANGEL, BAVIREDDY RASAGNA

Abstract- Nowadays, lot of attention is paid towards reversible data hiding (RDH) in the encrypted images, since it retains the property that the original image can be recovered after the secret data is retrieved in a lossless manner. Protecting multimedia data became a major issue in these days. That protection can be provided by developing reversible data hiding algorithms. Information can be sending to correct destination without any interruption. High capacity data hiding algorithms have been developed recently, but they are not apt for applications in encrypted images. So reversible data hiding algorithms are developed to hide data in encrypted images and it retrieves the hidden data and the cover image with reduced loss than basic data hiding algorithms. Previously, data hiding subject to embed the secret data by vacating space after encrypting the image that leads to errors in the receiver side. A novel method for reversible data hiding is proposed by vacating space before encryption and then embedding the data.Vacating space is done by performing the partition process followed by selfreversible embedding that leads to encryption stage. This method makes the hiding process easier than previous methods. Before performing the encryption process, space is created in the cover image for the secret data to be hidden. And then encryption is performed by any of the traditional methods.Later, data is hided into the encrypted image. By the proposed approach, the embedding performance is improved than previous methods.The proposed method can perform well even for large payloads with constant image quality. The proposed algorithm produces reduced error value than previous algorithms.

3. A NOVEL IRIS SEGMENTATION SCHEME TOWARDS IRIS RECOGNITION FOR USER AUTHORIZATION

Authors- MAMATHA V, VIJAYALAKSHMI G V

Abstract- This paper proposes an effective and novel method to recognize iris for user authorization. The haar features were used to represent the iris images efficiently for recognition. The proposed work was carried out on the images acquired from the UPOL database. The accuracy of any iris recognition system depends on the segmentation. The proposed method performs segmentation using Canny Edge technique that results in reduced time consumption, thereby reducing the time required for feature extraction, feature selection, dimension reduction and classification. In this method, the boundaries were localized with high precision. The results indicate high accuracy in iris segmentation and low segmentation error rate.

4. CHAETOMORPHA LINUM EXTRACT AS A GREEN INHIBITOR FOR CORROSION OF BRASS IN 0.1 N PHOSPHORIC ACID SOLUTION

Authors- SELVA KUMAR R. AND CHANDRASEKARAN V.

Abstract- The effect of marine algae Chaetomorpha linum extract on corrosion inhibition of brass in phosphoric acid was investigated by weight‐loss method, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies. The inhibition efficiency is found to increase with increasing concentration of extract and decreases with rise in temperature. The inhibitive effect could be attributed to the phytochemical constituents present in the inhibitor containing N, S, O atoms. The activation energy, thermodynamic parameters (free energy, enthalpy and entropy change) and kinetic parameters (rate constant and half‐life) for inhibition process were calculated. These thermodynamic and kinetic parameters indicate a strong interaction between the inhibitor and the brass surface. The inhibition is assumed to occur via adsorption of inhibitor molecules on the brass surface, which obeys Temkin adsorption isotherm. The adsorption of inhibitor on the brass surface is exothermic, physical, and spontaneous, follows first order kinetics. The polarization measurements showed that the inhibitor behaves as a mixed type inhibitor and the higher inhibition surface coverage on the brass was predicted. Inhibition efficiency values were found to show good trend with weight‐loss method, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies. Surface analytical techniques (FT‐IR and SEM) were carried out to ascertain the inhibitive nature of the algal extract on the brass surface.

5. EFFECTS OF SSI ON DYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF R.C.C. BUILDING FRAME

Authors- PADMANABH S. DESAI, S. B. BORGHATE

Abstract- An analyst or a designer is mainly concerned with the analysis and design of a variety of structures. All these structures are exclusively supported by soil and hence, the subject of soil‐structure interaction has come into existence and has attracted the attention of the analysts for last four‐decades. This research intends to investigate the effect of soil‐structure interaction on the dynamic properties of three dimensional R.C.C. buildings. This objective is achieved through the analyses of multi‐story 3D frames using SAP2000v15. The results are presented for cohesionless soils with wide range of shear wave velocities and variable‐height buildings (3, 7, 10, 14, and 18 floors). The fundamental time period of the structures is found out and its correlation with shear wave velocity is graphed for various single and double pile configurations. Parametric analyses show that SSI alters the buildings performance essentially for stiffer ones (low‐raised).

Authors- ABDUL RAHMAN SANAD, M.N.M.ANSARI, JAMAL O.SAMEER, ABDULBASIT ABDULLAH, BASSAM ALASEEL

Abstract- This work discusses multiple applications of multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) based composite materials. Carbon materials are known to possess suitable electrical conductivity, due to its of layered structure and elevated surface area, which results in appliances that have internal electrodes for recharging, such as batteries and components for fuel cell, or devices that work with nano‐electronics such as computer chips, storage media for fuel cell for on‐board hydrogen supply, and superconductors. This study will shed light on the production, sharing, and storage of energy within these carbon materials (multi‐walled carbon tubes). Multi walled carbon nanotubes are regarded as a more useful strengthening factor compared to the shorter multi walled carbon nanotubes. The results agree with the experimental results, which confirms the validity of the model. The current research on carbon materials (multi‐walled carbon tubes) focuses on the production, distribution, and storage of energy.

8. MATRIX REDUCTION METHOD as an EFFICIENT and ALTERNATE TECHNIQUE in DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS

Author- JEMAL KEMAL NIGO

Abstract- There are several methods of reducing a number of dimensional variables into a smaller number of dimensionless groups. One of the methods called the repeating variable method was proposed in 1914 by Buckingham and is now called the Buckingham Pi Theorem. Dimensional analysis by the Indicial Method is also one of a widely used method. The other is an alternate step by‐ step Method by Ipsen (1960). Even though these methods are widely used in different text books of fluid mechanics, they have some limitations. In Buckingham method all pi groups contain the same repeating variables (Redundancy) and might luck variety or effectiveness. Secondly, one must sometimes laboriously check that the selected repeating variables do not form a pi group among themselves. The indicial method exhibits similar drawbacks and is rather lengthy if a large number of variables were involved. The Ipsen alternate step‐by‐step method even though eliminates the above mentioned drawbacks, it itself have limitations. For instance, you have to examine and look for the required dimensional variable and multiply or divide by a suitable power of the variable under consideration. It is therefore necessary to develop a more generalized methodology that would had lead easily, directly, and shortly to a set of dimensionless groups and hence to the relationship among the variables. We here proposed an alternate Matrix Reduction Method (MRM) that alleviates the above mentioned problems. Indeed, we select a pivot row and column, apply some elementary row operations and J‐ operations to form the zero columns and zero row which are going to be deleted. Finally, we collect the exponents of different parameters which were obtained through successive J‐operations in the whole procedure both under the dependent variable and the proposed parameters. The result is the desired form of the relationship determining the dependence of one parameter on the others. The procedure is tested against and best illustrated by several examples.

11. SECONDARY SEXUAL CHARACTERISTICS AND DETERMINATION OF SEX OF TRICHOGASTER FASCIATUS (BLOCH AND SCHNEIDER) DURING BREEDING AND NON BREEDING SEASON

Authors- SAMARENDRA BEHERA, ISMILE KHAN, SANJEEV KUMAR, RINKU GOGOI, OLIK JOMANG, SNIGDHA BAKSI

Abstract- In this study, we aimed to determine the External morphology such as colour of the body, belly structure and vent of Trichogaster fasciatus. It was studied to understand the modification of secondary sexual characters during breeding season in compared to non‐ breeding season. Adults of T. fasciatus ranging from the length 36 mm to 85 mm and weight of 7 gm to 15 gm (w/w) were collected in each month from the Santi jheel, Mohanpur, West Bengal during a period of one year from March, 2003 to February, 2004. Unlike higher vertebrates, the sexual or genital organs of Trichogaster fasciatus were not exposed externally. During non‐breeding season (August‐December and January‐March), males develop peacock blue colour bands, which are obliquely disposed over the laterally compressed body. In females similar bands occur but with dull steel gray colour. In non‐breeding season (August‐December and January‐March), belly of fishes were quite equal in both the sexes. This might be due to the reason that during this time, the testis and ovaries were in post‐spawning and or preparatory phase. Structure of vent is changed by appearance of genital papilla. In male, it is elongated in contrast to that of the female. 

Keywords: Colour of body, belly of fishes, Structure of vent, breeding season and Trichogaster fasciatus.

Authors- MAHESH CHANAGOND, PLASIN DIAS

Abstract- The Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based wind farm into the power grid has become a major concern for power system engineers today. Voltage stability & Regulated is a key factor to maintain DFIG‐based wind farm in service during the grid fault. I study the implementation of STATCOM to overcome the voltage stability ®ulation issue for DFIG based wind farm connected to a distribution network. The study includes the implementation of a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) as a dynamic reactive power compensator at the point of common coupling to maintain stable voltage by protecting DFIG‐based wind farm interconnected to a distribution system from going off line during and after the disturbances. The developed system is simulated in MATLAB the results show that the STATCOM improves the transient voltage stability and therefore helps the wind turbine generator system to remain in service during grid faults.

Authors- VIPIN GUPTA, AKSHAY JAIN

Abstract- This project is aimed to develop an automated system in industries that sounds a local alarm and sends information through several mediums including logging the complaint on an online server at remote location that can be accessed anywhere through devices which are connected to the internet to overcome the issues faced in the past so that the accidents which can be caused by the leakages of the gas can be lessened. The accidents in the industries due to these leakages lead to threatening diseases as in past happened at the Union Carbide plant, Bhopal. So, these lead me to believe that preventive automated measures should be put in place along with human measures, as cost of human error or machine failure are very high to fathom. So to operationalize this idea, I used several gas sensor circuitries which shall be installed at all the zones present at oil sector industries, these shall sense the gas concentration values at those zones and accordingly perform functions given in form of instructions to the system. Everything shall be automated such that there is no chance of carelessness leading to severe damage. Also at various zones we shall install sprinkler systems containing CO2 and/or water at the top and adjacent places, such that if case of any leakage, the sprinklers shall sprinkle CO2 / Cold Water so as to lower the temperature of the zone to decrease the chances of fire at that location or decrease intensity of fire, in case it happens. We have thereby reduced the human involvement in the system but human intervention has not been done away with. This system hopes to complement efforts of man with that of machine and vice versa.

Authors- SARABJEET SINGH, VIPIN GUPTA

Abstract- In the recent years, reversible logic has emerged as a promising technology having its applications in low power CMOS, quantum computing, nanotechnology and optical computing. Reversible logic circuits provide less power dissipation as well as distinct output assignment for each distinct input. The classical set of gates such as the NAND, AND, NOR, OR, XOR and XNOR are not reversible. This paper aims at finding a reversible counterpart of all the irreversible basic logic gates and developing full custom layout of all these gates. Attempts have been taken to minimize the circuit of all the logic gates using CMOS while making them reversible. Further the reversible logic has been utilized to design the reversible full adder and half adder. Using those gates, 4‐bit Binary Parallel Adder and 4 bit adder‐sub tractor circuit are also designed. Thus, this paper provides the initial threshold to building of more complex system which can execute more complicated operations using reversible logic.

Authors- PROF. P.T. NIMBALKAR, S.S. THORAT

Abstract- Local scour around the circular bridge pier in alluvial channel is main factor for failure of hydraulics structures such as bridge pier, abutment etc. It is a complex phenomenon. Local scour around bridge pier is depends upon the depth of flow, Discharge, Geometry of Pier, Types of sediment particles. Many researchers have studies on scour around uniform cross section of pier without considering the effect of footing of bridge pier. But the study on scour under steady condition for compound bridge piers is limited. In present study, the experimental work was carried out on different geometry of compound bridge pier under clear water scour condition with uniform and non uniform sediments. The compound bridge pier was placed at a various location with respect to initial bed level. i.e. the top level of foundation at bed level, top level of foundation below bed level and top level of foundation above bed level. It is observed that the maximum scour occurs when the foundation top above initial bed level and it is reduce at bed level and below bed level. It is also observed that there is reduction scour in non uniform sediment as compare uniform sediment.

Abstract- In modern power systems the power quality became one of the main concern. Monitor and analysis of power system is very important to guarantee power quality. Most serious threats for electrical power systems are voltage sag and swell. The disturbance will occur due to some events like short circuit in the grid, inrush current involved with large machines. Many technique are existing to overcome the quality problems. In enhancing the operation of power system in static conditions as well as in dynamic conditions, Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) are became most popular which are used by utilities and due to their capability of controlling the system. Since from decades of years FACTS technology used to improve the power system stability. By using a new D‐FACTS technique power quality is enriched in spite of UPFC Distributed Power‐Flow Controller (DPFC) device is used and have the same control capability as UPFC. The case study contains a DPFC sited in a single‐machine infinite bus power system including two parallel transmission lines.In the event of voltage sag the load may malfunctioning or trip due to insufficient energy.In proposed work voltage sag and swell of the power quality issues and also content of harmonic and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of voltage and current wave in distribution network are studied to mitigate the voltage deviation and improve power quality. In this process the proposed work with fuzzy controller shows superior performance in both single machine system and multi machine system. The performance of the system are simulated by using MATLAB / SIMULINK Package.

Authors- A.VENKATA BHAVYA, G.SRINIVASULU REDDY

Abstract- Most of the wind energy conversion systems around the world employ Squirrel Cage Induction Generator (SCIG) which is directly connected to the grid. In modern power generation, the Wind Farms (WF) are connected through Medium Voltage (MV) distribution headlines. A situation commonly found in such scheme is that the power generated is comparable to the transport capacity of the grid. This case is known as Wind Farm to Weak Grid Connection. The major problems due to weak grids are voltage fluctuations and this causes poor voltage regulation at the Point Of Common Coupling (PCC). Thus the combination of weak grids, wind power fluctuation and system load changes results in disturbances in the PCC voltage, it will have negative impact on Power Quality and WF stability. This situation can be improved using control methods at generator level, or compensation techniques at PCC. In case of wind farms based on SCIG directly connected to the grid, it is necessary to employ the Custom Power System (CUPS). This project proposes the CUPS device i.e., Unified Power Quality Compensator (UPQC) which is designed to mitigate voltage fluctuations at the grid side and to maintain the voltage in the WF terminals. The internal control strategy is based on the management of active and reactive power in the series and shunt converters of the UPQC, and the exchange of power between converters through UPQC DC–Link. This approach increases the compensation capability of the UPQC with respect to other custom strategies i.e., DVR and DSTATCOM that use reactive power only. Simulations results show the effectiveness of the proposed compensation strategy for the enhancement of Power Quality and Wind Farm stability.

29. A HIGH PERFORMANCE NETWORK‐ON‐CHIP SYSTEM WITH PATH‐CONGESTION-AWARE ADAPTIVE ROUTING

Authors- ANAND H D, VARALAKSHMI K R, ARUN KUMAR G C

Abstract- Network on chip is an emerging concept for communication within large VLSI systems implemented on a single silicon chip. Routing is an important parameter. The routing algorithm should be implemented by simple logic and number of data buffers should be minimal. So selection of routing algorithm is critical. I am going to propose an adaptive routing technique that increases the effectiveness of routing path selection based on channel based information and switch based information simultaneously. Existing adaptive schemes uses only channel based information for traffic monitoring and routing path selection, but channel based information alone is not sufficient to predict path congestion accurately. So, I am going to remodel the path congestion information to show covert spatial congestion information considering all the latencies such as router latency, buffer latency, packet latency etc. by employing path congestion aware adaptive routing strategy and contention prediction scheme for path congestion prediction. Finally, the efficiency, power and area consumption and cost requirements are compared with respect to other similar popular implementation to get optimized results.

Author- SHIVANI SHUKLA

Abstract- The temperature dependent subthreshold and gate oxide leakage power characteristics of domino logic circuits are evaluated in this paper. The preferred input vectors and node voltage states minimize the total leakage power consumption and are identified at the lower and upper extremes of a typical die temperature spectrum. Previous studies indicate that a discharged dynamic node voltage states with high inputs is preferable to reduce the subthreshold leakage power consumption in an idle dual threshold voltage domino gate .The significantly increased gate dielectric tunneling current, as described in this paper, dramatically changes the leakage power characteristics of dynamic circuits in the sub‐90nm CMOS technologies. Furthermore, the leakage power savings provided by the dual threshold voltage domino logic circuit techniques are all together reduced due to the significance of the gate dielectric tunneling in the nanometer CMOS technologies.

32. ENHANCE THE TRANSIENT STABILITY AND RELIABILITY OF WIND POWER BY USING DFIG AND HPS SYSYTEM

Authors- A MOUNIKA, Dr. I. PRABHAKAR REDDY

Abstract- Over the past 20 years the concern over renewable energy resources is increasing due to limited conventional resources and increased pollution. In India, 16.8 % of power is contributed by wind energy and with the technological advances there is a good scope of increasing the power contributed by wind energy. However, the wind generators when integrated to the grid have adverse effects which lead to the reduction in power quality. Many researchers have proposed different techniques to maintain the voltage quality at the PCC by controlling the reactive power. Instead of controlling the reactive power, an energy storage system can be used to control the voltage .A control strategy for managing the demand – generation fluctuations using a hybrid energy storage system in a wind‐dominated remote area power supply system consisting of a DFIG, a battery storage system, a super capacitor, a dump load and main loads. Operation of battery storage system is coordinated with a super capacitor with a view to improving the performance of the battery. In this regard, the battery storage system is connected to the load side of the RAPS system, whereas the super capacitor is connected to the dc bus of the back-to-back converter of the DFIG. The project emphasizes on the application of hybrid energy storage systems to mitigate the effect of wind speed fluctuations, thereby ensuring smooth power output as well as improving the power quality at the PCC.

Authors- HARDIKA GUPTA, NEERAJ MANGLANI

Abstract- In this paper, we have discussed that in today’s Internet routing architecture, the router doesn’t validate the correctness of the source address carried in the packet, nor keep the state information when forwarding the packet. Thus the DDoS attacks with spoofed IP source address can cause security problems. In this paper, we aim to prevent the attackers from attacking somewhere outside the IPv6 edge network with forged source address in the fine granularity. The proposed methods include source address authentication by using session key and hash digest algorithm, and replay attack prevention by combining the sequence number method and the timestamp method. This paper presents the algorithm design and evaluates its feasibility and correctness by simulation experiments.

Author- ARCHITA SRIVASTAVA

Abstract- Energy recovery logic or adiabatic logic is emerging as a new logic design style for implementation in modern technology with minimal impact on circuit heat generation. Adiabatic logic is a design methodology for reversible logic in CMOS where the current flow through the circuit is controlled such that the energy dissipation due to switching and capacitor dissipation is minimized. Recent advancements in reversible logic using and quantum computer algorithms allow for improved computer architectures. Production of cost effective secure Integrated Chips, such as Smart Cards, requires hardware designers to consider tradeoffs in size, security, and power consumption. This paper presents a CMOS-based new design approach for a low power adiabatic 4:2 Priority Encoder and a 2:4 Decoder. The proposed designs are compared with the standard adiabatic logic styles– PFAL, ECRL and 2n2n2p, revealing lesser power consumption. The simulation is carried out in Tanner EDA software for frequency range 200MHz – 800MHz.

Authors- KESHAV PRASAD PATEL, MAHESH KUMAR DARGAR, PRAVIN KUMAR SINGH

Abstract- During the last decade there has been continuing demand of compact, integrated and small size products by a non‐traditional process for accurate and cost‐effective measurement of material properties. Micro‐manufacturing processes have different material capabilities and machining performance specifications. Machining performance specifications of concern include minimum feature size, tolerance, surface finish, and material removal rate (MRR) and applications of advanced, which is very difficult‐to machine materials. Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) technology has been widely used in production, aerospace/aircraft, medical and virtually all areas of conductive material machining. Aerospace materials are known as unique materials ever produced in manufacturing industries. It’s capable to withstand in very high temperature and the excellent resistance in mechanical and chemical debilitate. The aerospace material is nickel based super alloys is having high strength, thermal conflict with very tough material characteristics. It is also very good in corrosion resistance in many conditions of engineering applications. Due to very tough in nature and the machinability has been studied by many researchers on these materials and been carried out for last few years. This project presents the machining of the aerospace material (Al) using wire EDM with in micro size. The objective of this project is to investigate the performance of micro wire EDM machining of Al material. WEDM is extensively used in machining of conductive materials when accuracy and tight tolerance is important. Simple and easily understandable model for an axisymmetric 2D model for wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) has been developed using the finite element method (FEM). Correctness of the present FEA modeling method has been checked by comparing the present thermal modeling with the previously developed thermal model of INCONEL718 material. The observation have been influenced on various characteristics namely, material removal rate (MRR) and residual stress. Comparison was done between the theoretical MRR and the experimental results. Design was based on L9 orthogonal array that was taken by Taguchi design of experiment (DOE) approach with three‐level, three factors Experiments have been conducted for each experimental run.

38. THE EFFECT OF HOT FORGING AND HEAT TREATMENT ON TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF AL6061‐AL2O3 NANO COMPOSITES

Authors- MUKESH SAHU, MAHESH KUMAR DARGAR, DR. V.N. BARTARIA

Abstract- The use of aluminium‐based particulate reinforced MMCs for automotive components and aircraft structures have been shown to be highly advantageous over their unreinforced alloys, due to their high specific strength and stiffness and superior wear resistance in a wide temperature range. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effect of the hot forging process on the microstructure and tribological properties of a MMC based on the aluminium alloys A6061 reinforced with nanoalumina particles (Al2O3p). Al6061 matrix composite reinforced with nano Al2O3 particles were fabricated by liquid metallurgy route. Percentage of nano Al2O3 particles in Al6061 matrix alloy was varied from 1‐3wt. % in steps of 1wt%. Cast Al6061 alloy and Al6061‐nano Al2O3 composites were hot forged at a temperature of 500oC. After forging, both Al6061 alloy and Al6061‐Al2O3 composites were subjected to heat treatment by solutionizing at a temperature of 530 ̊C for 2 hours followed by quenching in water media. Artificial ageing was done at different durations like 2, 4, 6 and 8 hrs after quenching. Hot forged and heat treated Al6061 alloy and Al6061‐nano Al2O3 composites were subjected to microstructural studies, microhardness test, friction and wear studies. Microstructural analyses of the as‐cast and heat‐treated composites showed large grain size of the aluminium alloy matrix and a quite non‐homogeneous distribution of the reinforcing particles. The forging process led to an evident grain refinement, while it did not lead to significant variations in the size and distribution of the reinforcement particles. It is observed that the microhardness of hot forged Al6061‐nano Al2O3 composites increases with increase in weight percent of nano Al2O3 in the matrix alloy. On heat treatment, for a given content of nano Al2O3 after quenching in water, results in maximum hardness of the composites. Co‐efficient of friction of hot forged composites reduces with increase in content of nano Al2O3 in both as forged and heat treatment conditions. An increase in load leads to drastic reduction in co‐efficient of friction for both heat treated and un‐heat treated hot forged Nano composites. It is also observed that co‐efficient of friction of both matrix alloy and its composites decreases with increase in ageing duration.

Authors- VIRENDRA PARMAR, ADITYA LAL, R. N. SHUKLA

Abstract- The present work aimed to study mass transfer during osmotic dehydration of bitter gourd slices in binary solution. The experiments were conducted at the combinations of three binary solution (Salt) concentration levels (5, 10 and 15% w/w) and three solutions temperature (40, 50, 60⁰C). At each combination, the observations on moisture loss and solid gain were determined at six time intervals (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180min). Sample to Solution ratio was kept constant 1:5 w/v through all experiments. The mass transfer in osmotic dehydration of bitter gourd slices were explained by a two‐parameter mathematical model Azuara et al. Moreover, the effect of solution concentration and temperature was also studied and it was found that initial water loss and solid gain are related to solution concentration and temperature whereas equilibrium contents are related to salt concentration. From the experimental data it is possible to estimate the equilibrium content of water and solid.

Authors- MARTIN ANTO, NAVIN KARANTH P, SENTHIL SUBRAMANIAM

Abstract- Thermoplastics have many advantages over metal parts, including lower mass and ease of fabrication. To further improve their elastic modulus, creep resistance, and dimensional stability, short fibers are added to polymers. However, the application of fiber‐filled thermoplastic materials has been limited in many cases by the inability to accurately predict performance and durability. Evaluation of structural strength using FEA technique with normal isotropic properties, cannot effectively characterize the failure region in composite structures. Presented work is focusing on numerical simulation of short glass fibers reinforced thermoplastic composites manufactured with injection molding technology. A combination of software packages for injection molding analysis, material modeling (Digimat) and structural analyses helps to determine exact failure region and quantification of correct deflection of members by incorporating information on fibers distribution. Detailed methodology adopted using Digimat for the correct structural reliability is discussed in this paper.

Authors- PRAVEEN PODDAR, Dr. K.S. SHASHISHEKAR

Abstract- A busbar is a strip or bar of copper, aluminum or any that conducts electricity within a switch board, distribution board, substation, battery bank or other electrical system. Its main purpose is to conduct electricity, not just to function as a structural member. Busbars improves systematic capacitance, lower inductance and impedance. Commercially, the present practice is to use different busbars for different current ratings. The main reason for this is the variation in temperature and the entire busbar system has to be replaced depending on the required current rating. This is a time consuming and expensive practice. To prevent the above difficulties in the present work a busbar with fins, which can be used for varying current ratings, is proposed. The proposal is done by thermal analysis of the busbar and the theoretical and simulation results are compared. There is the analysis is carried out by simulation using Star CCM+. The temperature distribution with and without fins are evaluated and number of fin is fixed for the required heat dissipation of the busbar.

Authors- P. SARATH, M. PRASAD

Abstract- This paper introduces an advanced current control strategy for grid‐connected operations of distributed generation (DG), which supports the DG to transfer a sinusoidal current into the utility grid despite the distorted grid voltage and non‐linear local load conditions. The proposed current controller is designed in the synchronous reference frame and composed of a proportional–integral (PI) controller and a repetitive controller (RC). An RC serves as a bank of resonant controllers, which can compensate a large number of harmonic components with a simple delay function. Hence, the control strategy can be greatly simplified. In addition, the proposed control method does not require the local load current measurement or harmonic analysis of the grid voltage. Therefore, the proposed control method can be easily adopted into the traditional DG control system without installation of extra hardware. Despite the reduced number of sensors, the grid current quality is significantly improved compared with the traditional methods with the PI controller. The operation principle of the proposed control method is analyzed in detail, and its effectiveness is validated through simulated and experimental results.

Authors- Miss Amruta B. Bhojane, Prof. Priti A. Khodke

Abstract- Information security is becoming important concern in today’s world because of widespread use of internet as a communication channel. We generally need to communicate data in the form of text, image, audio or video. This information is mostly communicated through the network. But in a network, data is not secure, it can get eavesdrop. To protect transfer of sensitive data in network from a third person steganography techniques can be used. There are different steganography techniques such as image, audio, video, text, network steganography. Steganography means hiding secret data inside a cover medium such that no one other than the sender and intended recipient suspect the existence of secret data. In this paper we explain video steganography. Our proposed approach is data hiding in video stream by text substitution, it is divided into two parts data embedding and data extraction. To hide text data file inside frames of video we propose higher least significant bit algorithm. And to provide more security to the stego video proposed pixel swapping encryption technique, which is use to encrypt stego video. For data hiding inside frame, first divide single frame into four carrier images and hide data into five LSB bits of each pixel of a carrier image, which satisfy quantization error condition and leave other pixel as it is. Key generated while hiding data is store into last pixel of carrier image. Data hiding key and encryption key are used to preserve privacy. Our proposed approach tries to improve payload capacity and provide more security to the stego video.

Authors- BASAVARAJAPPA H.T, PUSHPAVATHI K.N, MANJUNATHA M.C

Abstract- Land and soil management in developing countries like India is very much necessary in better monitoring for future sustainable resources. These resources are over stretched and undergoing degradation at an unacceptable rate due to rapid increase in population. Land use refers to mans activities & various uses which are carried on land; while land cover refers to natural vegetation such as water bodies, rock/soil, artificial cover and other resulting due to land transformations. Although land use is generally inferred based on the cover, yet both are closely related and interchangeable. Soil is a natural body developed by natural forces acting of natural materials. Soil is the loose and weathered rock material that covers the land surface of the earth and supports the growth of vegetation.

Authors- GANESH. I. KULKARNI, MANJUNATH HEGDE, Dr. KIRTHAN L. J

Abstract- This research work demonstrates the crack propagation analysis with the concept of Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) and by using zero thickness cohesive elements in the region of crack. For current research a Compact Tension Specimen (CTS) as per ASTM standard of material EN‐31 steel is developed and it is assigned with the material properties, zero thickness cohesive elements and boundary conditions in Abaqus. The results obtained were compared with the experimental and J‐integral values taken from literature review; it is found that critical crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) result from experimental is found to be 0.808mm and by J‐integral approach is found to be 0.7604mm which is 7% less than the experimental value and for CZM it found to be 0.778mm which is 4% less than experimental value. Thus CZM is appropriate to use for determining the critical CTOD and also the crack simulation data can be matched with the experimental data.

Authors- TEJ PRATAP SINGH, JATIN BHATNAGAR, C.B.MAJUMDER

Abstract- In this study we used common aquatic living plant Eichhornia crassipes to check out its effect on removal of fluoride from industrial wastewater. These plants were grown in plant growth chamber and were studied for 10‐15 days provided with different pH and different concentration of fluoride. It was found that removal efficiency of Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is 58.894% in the present study. When pH of the solution is varied i.e. either increased or decreased we observed that there is a deficiency in removal of fluoride. It does also shows degradation in biomass due to fluoride presence. Accumulation was found maximum in roots then stems then leaves. Total accumulation was 1899.422 for fluoride concentration of 20 mg/L.

55. IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING WATERSHED AND GRADIENT VECTOR FOR MULTIPLE OBJECTS

Authors- ESHA CHAUHAN, ANOOP SINGHAL

Abstract- This paper describes a novel method for partitioning image into meaningful segments within a given time. The proposed method employs a step wise approach which uses gradient vector method for determining the boundary, a threshold which after getting the boundary neutralizes the values to make the image consistent enough so that the watershed segmentation technique can segmentize the image with proper and fine boundary definitions. Along with that, it uses various auxiliary schemes such as gray scale conversion, average threshold method, which segment the image in proper way but with some distortion around the boundary. The algorithm proposed in this paper considers all these methods in effective way and takes little time. It is organized in such a manner so that it operates on input image adaptively. Its robustness and efficiency makes it more convenient and suitable for all types of images.

56. BANDWIDTH OPTIMISATION USING CACHING TECHNIQUES FOR PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT IN A SYSTEM

Authors- ASHOK KUMAR TRIPATHI , RAMESH BHARTI

Abstract- A Web cache is a mechanism for the temporary storage (caching) of web documents, such as HTML pages and images, to reduce bandwidth usage, server load, and perceived lag. A web cache stores copies of documents passing through it; subsequent requests may be satisfied from the cache if certain conditions are met. The World Wide Web suffers from scaling and reliability problems due to overloaded and congested proxy servers. Caching at local proxy serves help, but cannot satisfy more than a third to half of requests; more requests are still sent to original remote servers. This paper as case study discusses and analysed several web caching schemes and to optimised the network of organisation for bandwidth enhancement. Clustering improves the retrieval latency and also helps to provide load balancing in distributed environment. But this cannot ensure the scalability issues, easy handling of frequent disconnections of proxy servers and metadata management issues in the network.

Author- JAYA AGRAWAL

Abstract- For n level region incrementing visual cryptography scheme, image is divided in n regions. Each region consists of one level information. For implementing vc in n levels we need to encode (n+1) shares in such a way so that any single share is not able to show the information and by combining any two shares, first level information would be visible. In similar way, for revealing whole information all the (n+1) shares are superimposed. In proposed scheme, levels are created automatically. User needs only to use a particular level information with a particular size of text and it is modified to generate the levels automatically which is named as automatic region incrementing visual cryptography.

Authors- PRITI SHARMA, NIDHISH TIWARI

Abstract- Semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) are very attractive nonlinear elements for the realization of different logic functions, since they can exhibit a strong change of the refractive index together with high gain. In this paper, a principle of operation, simulation step and experimental result of different all‐optical logic gates (AND Gate, OR Gate, XOR Gate) are well presented. These gates are based on the nonlinearities on SOAs. The experimental results were exactly matched with standard results and increasing the speed of optical logic gates. All‐optical logic gates became key elements in the realization of node functionalities, as add drop multiplexing, packet synchronization, clock recovery, address recognition, and signal processing. Semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) are very attractive nonlinear elements for the realization of different logic functions, since they can exhibit a strong change of the refractive index together with high gain. Moreover, different form of fibre devices SOAs allow photonic integration. The nonlinear behaviour that is a drawback for the SOAs as a linear amplifier makes it a good choice for an optically controlled optical gate.

Authors- BENAZIR FATIMA, A.A. MISHRA

Abstract- Vinegar fermentation was essentially a two‐step process comprising the anaerobic conversion of sugars to ethanol (C2H5OH) and the aerobic oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid (CH3CO2H). It was to be found that vinegar could be successfully produced from the juice extracted from banana peel and coconut water using yeast and Acetobacter. Banana peel and coconut water was a suitable raw material for ethanol production by fermentation and for vinegar production by this ethanol. The present study indicates that a relatively good yield of ethanol and acetic acid can be obtained after optimization of conditions for fermentation. For Banana peel Alcohol, the highest alcohol level was 7.77% at 10% sugar level, 8% yeast cell concentration for 48 hrs. at 28ºC. For Banana peel Vinegar, the maximum acidity was obtained 4.67 % at 7.77% of alcohol level, 15% of A. aceti cell concentration for 12 week at 37 ºC.For coconut water, the highest alcohol level was 5.60% at 12%sugar level, 10%yeast cell concentration for 48hrs.at 28ºC.For coconut water vinegar, the maximum acidity was obtained 6.00% at 5.60% of alcohol level,15%of A.aceticell concentration for 12 week at 37ºC.chemical analysis pH,titrable acidity,protein,ash,phosphorus,mallic acid(2.50,0.28,19.63,2.53)for coconut water vinegar and for banana peel vinegar(2.98.0.093,9.75,0.60) respectively on the basis of overall sensory attributes, colour of sample 100:15% has better appearance as compare to 100:10% and 100:5%. Flavor, Aroma, Taste, After Taste and Overall Acceptability of sample 100:15% has got higher score than sample 100:5% and 100:10% because of dark yellow color of coconut water vinegar and brown colour of banana peel vinegar. After chemical analysis it was found that sample 100:15% had high percentage of protein and other nutrients it was concluded that banana peel and coconut water alcohol with 5%,10%,15% A.Aceti inoculates were used for the production of vinegar without adversely affecting quality attributes.

Authors- MOHAMMED A. M., EL‐NAFATY U. A., BUGAJE I. M. MUKTHAR B.

Abstract- Fuel Cell as an alternative energy device is expensive due to high cost of production of its components. In this research, a bipolar plate, which is a component of a fuel cell, is fabricated using indigenous raw material (graphite). The plate was produced using epoxy resin as the material matrix and graphite as the filler. In order to produce bipolar plate with best characteristics, eight different formulations (55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% and 90% filler concentration) were tested and the plates were produced using compression moulding at 1500C and 100kN. The plates were characterized for electrical conductivity, tensile strength, and flexural strength. ASTM D3039 and D790 were used for tensile and flexural strength test respectively. Electrical conductivity was determined using Van der Pauw technique and the values were found to be 104.35 S/cm and 107.78 S/cm in 85% and 90% filler concentration plates, which is above US‐DOE target. Tensile strength and flexural strength shows varying results due to either increase in elasticity or brittleness with respect to increasing filler concentration. However, the values for tensile and flexural strength were found to be 15.64 and 54.70MPa respectively at 70% filler concentration’s plate. This is also above the target set by US‐DOE in 2012. Therefore, 70/30 wt% graphite/epoxy resin formulation was recommended as the appropriate since its plate has all the mechanical properties above the US‐DOE target.

Authors- Jitender Pal, Priyanka

Abstract- The aim of present study is to monitor and assessment the levels of heavy metals (Ni, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, and Cr) in pulses [Massor (Lens culinaris), Chana (Chickpea), Urad (Vigna mungo), Arhar (Cajanus cajan), Moong (Vigna rodiata)] and cereals [Wheat (Triticum aestivum), Rice (Oryza sativa)] sold in three cities (Hisar, Rewari and Rohtak) of Haryana. The maximum concentration of Zn (75.48mg/kg) was found in all pulses and cereals at Hisar city and minimum concentrations of Cr were noticed in all selected pulses and cereals. The daily intakes of Ni, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, and Cr through pulses and cereals have also been estimated. The higher value of ADD (mg/kg/person/day) for adults in Zn for consumption is 0.0595 in massor in Rohtak city. They are found to be below the reference dose and safe limits proposed by [FAO/WHO]. The hazard quotient of all the metals is less than one in all the pulses and cereal samples of all the selected locations and may not constitute any health hazards by consumption of pulses and cereals.
